New York Times Lyrics - Back To Earth - Cat Stevens

New York poor New York 

New York poor New York 

Cars choking your child to death 

But you don't want to see 

Cause you only think about yourself 

How blind can you be 

New York poor New York 

Sniper on the rooftop New York 

New York poor New York 

Not fit for a dog in New York 

Everybody bites on the Big Apple 

Leave the hungry in tears 

But no one gives a damn no one really cares 

How they feel they're just paper people not real

You need a gun to walk into New York 

Now you're broke and you're out on a ledge 

Who can help you this time 

Now you're down to your very last cent 

Still you're askin' me who was your friend 

I was your friend 

New York poor New York 

Who turned the lights out in New York 

New York poor New York 

Just another blackout in New York 

Girl dead on the 26th floor 

But no one knew her name 

Found her body behind the door 

Too young for the game

New York poor New York 

Devils in the subway New York 

New York poor New York 

New York poor New York 

Talkin' talkin' talkin', watch out 

Harlem touching midtown New York 

New York poor New York 

Talkin' 'bout New York New York 

Money's getting tighter New York 

They're burning the bridges to New York
